Reviews for the Sony Vaio VPC-YB1S1E/S

100% Sony Vaio Y-series 11.6in review
Source: It Pro Archive.org version
There's a lot like about the 11.6in Sony Vaio Y from its comfortable keyboard to its reasonably long battery life and bright screen. Best of all is its low price of £343 ext VAT. Although we suspect similarly-priced budget ultraportable laptops with equally good battery life based on Intel processors will soon be available, for now the Vaio Y is a good choice if you need a light laptop at a low price.
